Just caught up with this weeks episode.
- David filmed explaining he's had three losses and does not want another (now we regularly see little pieces like this from candidates, but it's what follows that spoils it)
- Alice is filmed explaining she hopes she wins again after not losing one single task so far
With the above alone, I came to the conclusion that David's team would win the task and that Alice would be fired.
We then got Alan singling them out and forcing them to be the team leaders. "Why am I even bothering to watch? I know the result, 100%" This was before the TASK (which the firing is meant to be based on) had even started!
Then we get the subteam slating Alice and looking baffled as she speaks to them over the phone.
Terrible editing. Try not to make it so obvious next week, please.

Same with Helen the other way around really... she didn't lose a task until Week 10, and in the previous weeks, this was mentioned lots of times.
If there was a completely fair edit and you knew one team had made a pigs ear of everything there you'd be no doubt at all who had won even before the boardroom. That would then be hard to watch as you'd already know the result. The team members only know how well they did, so it's important to keep the viewers in the dark about the outcome too.
Sometimes, if a team has screwed up badly enough, it's entertaining even if it is predictable. Like Lindsay and the Secret Signals. Or Alexa and the chickens.
I disagree with this, a lot of the time people in the early stages have been fired for not coming to the forefront. In most recent years, this appears to have been in Week 2 most of the time... Joy Stefanicki? Alex Britez Cabral? Ben Fowler? Maria O'Connor?
Hence why I said this:
"we regularly see little pieces like this from candidates, but it's what follows that spoils it"
Because Navdeep had also won three tasks, why not show a snippet of her saying something similar, too?
All I'm saying is it was completely obvious. They focused on two candidates (the best and worst in terms of stats) and then tried to 'shock' us with the worst winning and the best getting fired. Talk about shoving it in our faces. There was no need to edit it in that way.
It's normally fairly obvious which TEAM will win/lose (for reasons already mentioned in this thread - which is fair enough), but it's never obvious as to who will be fired. Last week it was, that's all I was pointing out.
Maybe she just didn't say that? She does seem a little more introverted than Alice... the show might be heavily edited, but they can only edit what the candidates said in the first place.
